As I stand here typing this looking out of the window it is raining again, we said that when it started it wouldn’t know when to stop, we mustn’t complain we need it, the surface is now nice and moist but the water table is still very low and we need this to raise ready for the next dry spell.
The wet has not stopped us getting on, all the planting for 2019 is now completed so we will have a continued crop of winter brassicas, leeks and celeriac. We are still harvesting Cabbages, Cauliflowers, Calabrese, Sprouting Broccoli, Curly Kale, Celeriac, Parsley and Chrysanthemum’s. We have locally grown Potatoes, Onions, apples and pears.
Wallflowers, Pansies, Polyanthus and spring flowering bulbs are all still available, now is the time to plant for that early spring colour.
As from this weekend we will be operating our winter opening hours, our weekdays will be 8am to 5.30pm, Saturday 8am to 5pm and Sunday 10am to 3pm.
